When The Music Starts To Play - The Incredible String Band

作词：Mike Heron

作曲：Mike Heron

All my life and it's been a short one

I've met the happy and the sad together

I chased the soft warm air that flew before me

And through the storm on wings of love

The song of life bore me

And when the music starts to play let me be around I said

When the music starts to play let me be around

Oh can't you see how my heart soars high

When I hear that music

When the music starts to play let me be around

When sadness lays his cold fist on my shoulder

And pushes me in icy waters drowning

The gentle hand of music lifts me smiling

And through these sounds my heart takes bounds

I happy am

And when the music starts to play let me be around I said

When the music starts to play let me be around

Oh can't you see how my heart soars high

When I hear that music

When the music starts to play let me be around
